December 2010: Kim and Kanye are having a baby - wait, what?!Hang on, have we skipped a few steps here? Nope, turns out the first rumors of Kimye hooking up and having a baby began way back in 2010, circulated either by a bunch of lying reporters or time travelers from the future trying to warn us of what was to come.

December 2012: They're having a baby!As evidenced by his many hilarious Twitter rants, sometimes Kanye just can't hold stuff in. In December, the rapper blurts out the news that he and Kim are expecting a baby while on stage, blindsiding his lady. Dammit, Kanye, that was prime KUWTK season premiere material!

January 2013: Kimye buy a love shackThe couple drop a reported $11m (£6.5m) on a 14,000 square foot Italian-style villa in Bel Air - and immediately take a sledgehammer to it. The couple still haven't moved in to the house 16 months later, and recent photos show it looking like a total bombsite. Well, building an actual moat does take time.

Kim and Kanye hit the headlines when they make a rare public appearance together at the 2013 Met Ball, but probably not for the reasons they hoped. Kim's Givenchy floral dress is absolutely savaged by press all around the world and sees her compared to Mrs Doubtfire by Robin Williams himself, which must have put a downer on their date night.

The world finally gets their first look at ickle North when Kanye shows off a baby photo on Kim's mother Kris Jenner's chat show, imaginatively titled Kris. Kanye also speaks at length about his love for Kim in what is essentially a televised version of the 'And what are your intentions with my daughter?' conversation.

October 2013: Kanye puts a ring on itA rented out San Francisco stadium, a 55-carat Lorraine Schwartz ring, fireworks and a 50-piece orchestra playing Lana Del Rey all feature in Kanye's epic proposal on Kim's 33rd birthday. Well, it was never going to be a quiet affair was it? Hopefully we too will one day be treated to a gesture so romantic it's worth suing over.

November 2013: The 'Bound 2' video

January 2014: The Palace of Versailles says 'non'After rumors start to spread, the Palace of Versailles puts out a statement (well, the building itself doesn't, just some guy who works there) stating that Kimye will not be getting married at the former home of French royalty. Later reports suggest that the couple did indeed ask to hold their ceremony in its halls, but were politely turned down. The couple receive more bad news in January when Kanye has to pay a $250,000 (£157,000) settlement to a teen he allegedly assaulted for shouting racial epithets at Kim.

May 2014: Kimye confirm Florence wedding, overshare about their last visitIt's confirmed that the couple will tie the knot at the 16th century Belvedere Fort in Florence, Italy after paying a reported €300,000 (£242,000) for the pleasure. The city has special significance for the couple, as Kanye believes it's where North was conceived. We're sorry to leave you with the image of Kim and Kanye in the throes of passion, but hey, nothing your brain conjures up could surely be worse than 'Bound 2'?
